Time for two paracetamol and bed.

Nunnight one and all xxx

A glass o'water to help the two paracetamol go down, but how much for the bed!!

I can't see even a spoonful of sugar helping there.

Good morning. Getting ready for work.

It clearly rained very heavily during the night, so I expect puddles.

That's the power of marketing, big business and virtue-signalling.

From an engineer's perspective, there are other, better options e.g. hydrogen, both in a modified ICE set-up and in the same type of fuel cell technology that they use in spacecraft. But alas, the automotive industry goes where a) the biggest profits are, b) where the biggest subsidies are, and c) to whatever other government carrot is being dangled in front of their nose...

We see this in Stuttgart where the city gives all kinds of tax breaks and subsidies to the car companies, and ignores a lot of the consequences as well. I think the industry benefits from the perception of being more important than it is because cars are visible, whereas R&D or Chemicals aren't quite as obvious.

Garden birds have been fed
Cuppa is brewing

I've decided to take the glass recycling to drop off on the way to work.

I'm nearly up. MrsPete brought me a cup of tea as she needs to phaff around in the bedroom getting ready to go out.
Her hair dryer makes an inordinate amount of noise!

It's a lovely feeling

Especially after being stuck on income support for several years.

 

[Illaveago]

Of course not, I looked there first.

Did you try the other end ?

 

[biggs682]

Especially after being stuck on income support for several years.

That makes it even more rewarding then so enjoy

 

[biggs682]
